My corn bread is dry. I followed the recipe on the cornmeal box. Can someone please help me?

Sharon, mine always was, too until I started adding a heaping tablespoon of sour cream to the batter- also I throw in about 1/3 of a cup of frozen corn kernels, try it once and see, cook it a tad bit longer but don't overcook and this might be your new cornbread recipe!
Sharon, I learned this hint from a friend who makes delightfully moist and sweet cornbread: Add one more egg than the recipe instructions call for, and a tablespoon of honey.
I'm sure exceptions exist, but every boxed, bagged, or from scratch cornbread batter I've used since, always turns out better with the extra egg and honey. Good luck and Enjoy!

My cornbread is hard. I add sour cream and oil, along with milk and an egg. But it is just awful. Please help. I have tried so many recipes, but it doesn't help. They aren't what I expect.
I like Jiffy mix also but sometimes you may just wish to make it from "scratch". Several things may be happening with your cornbread so think about what could be changed to improve the texture.
